Systematic errors in Hadamard transform optics

Error sources encountered in Hadamard transform optical instruments are discussed. Such errors are caused by factors including moving masks, incorrect mask alignment, defects in mask fabrication, missing data, drifts in background level, and diffraction. Techniques for error reduction and/or elimination are described for each of the cases considered. It is noted that the errors described occur in singly encoded spectrometers and imagers.
